dojo.Deferred = function(/*Function?*/ canceller){
// summary:
// Encapsulates a sequence of callbacks in response to a value that
// may not yet be available. This is modeled after the Deferred class
// from Twisted <http://twistedmatrix.com>.
// description:
// JavaScript has no threads, and even if it did, threads are hard.
// Deferreds are a way of abstracting non-blocking events, such as the
// final response to an XMLHttpRequest. Deferreds create a promise to
// return a response a some point in the future and an easy way to
// register your interest in receiving that response.
//
// The most important methods for Deffered users are:
//
// * addCallback(handler)
// * addErrback(handler)
// * callback(result)
// * errback(result)
//
// In general, when a function returns a Deferred, users then "fill
// in" the second half of the contract by registering callbacks and
// error handlers. You may register as many callback and errback
// handlers as you like and they will be executed in the order
// registered when a result is provided. Usually this result is
// provided as the result of an asynchronous operation. The code
// "managing" the Deferred (the code that made the promise to provide
// an answer later) will use the callback() and errback() methods to
// communicate with registered listeners about the result of the
// operation. At this time, all registered result handlers are called
// *with the most recent result value*.
//
// Deferred callback handlers are treated as a chain, and each item in
// the chain is required to return a value that will be fed into
// successive handlers. The most minimal callback may be registered
// like this:
//
// | var d = new dojo.Deferred();
// | d.addCallback(function(result){ return result; });
//
// Perhaps the most common mistake when first using Deferreds is to
// forget to return a value (in most cases, the value you were
// passed).
//
// The sequence of callbacks is internally represented as a list of
// 2-tuples containing the callback/errback pair. For example, the
// following call sequence:
//
// | var d = new dojo.Deferred();
// | d.addCallback(myCallback);
// | d.addErrback(myErrback);
// | d.addBoth(myBoth);
// | d.addCallbacks(myCallback, myErrback);
//
// is translated into a Deferred with the following internal
// representation:
//
// | [
// | [myCallback, null],
// | [null, myErrback],
// | [myBoth, myBoth],
// | [myCallback, myErrback]
// | ]
//
// The Deferred also keeps track of its current status (fired). Its
// status may be one of three things:
//
// * -1: no value yet (initial condition)
// * 0: success
// * 1: error
//
// A Deferred will be in the error state if one of the following three
// conditions are met:
//
// 1. The result given to callback or errback is "instanceof" Error
// 2. The previous callback or errback raised an exception while
// executing
// 3. The previous callback or errback returned a value
// "instanceof" Error
//
// Otherwise, the Deferred will be in the success state. The state of
// the Deferred determines the next element in the callback sequence
// to run.
//
// When a callback or errback occurs with the example deferred chain,
// something equivalent to the following will happen (imagine
// that exceptions are caught and returned):
//
// | // d.callback(result) or d.errback(result)
// | if(!(result instanceof Error)){
// | result = myCallback(result);
// | }
// | if(result instanceof Error){
// | result = myErrback(result);
// | }
// | result = myBoth(result);
// | if(result instanceof Error){
// | result = myErrback(result);
// | }else{
// | result = myCallback(result);
// | }
//
// The result is then stored away in case another step is added to the
// callback sequence. Since the Deferred already has a value
// available, any new callbacks added will be called immediately.
//
// There are two other "advanced" details about this implementation
// that are useful:
//
// Callbacks are allowed to return Deferred instances themselves, so
// you can build complicated sequences of events with ease.
//
// The creator of the Deferred may specify a canceller. The canceller
// is a function that will be called if Deferred.cancel is called
// before the Deferred fires. You can use this to implement clean
// aborting of an XMLHttpRequest, etc. Note that cancel will fire the
// deferred with a CancelledError (unless your canceller returns
// another kind of error), so the errbacks should be prepared to
// handle that error for cancellable Deferreds.
// example:
// | var deferred = new dojo.Deferred();
// | setTimeout(function(){ deferred.callback({success: true}); }, 1000);
// | return deferred;
// example:
// Deferred objects are often used when making code asynchronous. It
// may be easiest to write functions in a synchronous manner and then
// split code using a deferred to trigger a response to a long-lived
// operation. For example, instead of register a callback function to
// denote when a rendering operation completes, the function can
// simply return a deferred:
//
// | // callback style:
// | function renderLotsOfData(data, callback){
// | var success = false
// | try{
// | for(var x in data){
// | renderDataitem(data[x]);
// | }
// | success = true;
// | }catch(e){ }
// | if(callback){
// | callback(success);
// | }
// | }
//
// | // using callback style
// | renderLotsOfData(someDataObj, function(success){
// | // handles success or failure
// | if(!success){
// | promptUserToRecover();
// | }
// | });
// | // NOTE: no way to add another callback here!!
// example:
// Using a Deferred doesn't simplify the sending code any, but it
// provides a standard interface for callers and senders alike,
// providing both with a simple way to service multiple callbacks for
// an operation and freeing both sides from worrying about details
// such as "did this get called already?". With Deferreds, new
// callbacks can be added at any time.
//
// | // Deferred style:
// | function renderLotsOfData(data){
// | var d = new dojo.Deferred();
// | try{
// | for(var x in data){
// | renderDataitem(data[x]);
// | }
// | d.callback(true);
// | }catch(e){
// | d.errback(new Error("rendering failed"));
// | }
// | return d;
// | }
//
// | // using Deferred style
// | renderLotsOfData(someDataObj).addErrback(function(){
// | promptUserToRecover();
// | });
// | // NOTE: addErrback and addCallback both return the Deferred
// | // again, so we could chain adding callbacks or save the
// | // deferred for later should we need to be notified again.
// example:
// In this example, renderLotsOfData is syncrhonous and so both
// versions are pretty artificial. Putting the data display on a
// timeout helps show why Deferreds rock:
//
// | // Deferred style and async func
// | function renderLotsOfData(data){
// | var d = new dojo.Deferred();
// | setTimeout(function(){
// | try{
// | for(var x in data){
// | renderDataitem(data[x]);
// | }
// | d.callback(true);
// | }catch(e){
// | d.errback(new Error("rendering failed"));
// | }
// | }, 100);
// | return d;
// | }
//
// | // using Deferred style
// | renderLotsOfData(someDataObj).addErrback(function(){
// | promptUserToRecover();
// | });
//
// Note that the caller doesn't have to change his code at all to
// handle the asynchronous case.
